~ The Toolshed ~

So I've decided to create a new space, similar to The Ice-Memery but instead of being silly memes, these are memes/images/words etc. that I've found that are more like tools and insights for recovery. Hence, I welcome you to:

~ The Toolshed! ~

🔧💡🔩🤔

These are things I've found that are insightful, provide psychoeducation, or that have helped inspire me in my recovery journey. I invite anyone who wishes to contribute to do so! It doesn't have to be pictures, it can be discussion, questions, videos, whatever you like! But to start us off, I would love to share a nice lil stack of memes/pics I've found that I thought were really worth the read.

P.S. If you haven't already, you can also check out our Coping Toolbox for ideas and strategies to help you when you need to cope with the hard stuff!

So without further ado, lemme kick us off!

Will just tag a few forumites to start, pls do tag anyone you feel would enjoy or wanna contribute to this thread!

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@PeppyPatti @Glisten @Jynx @tyme I can't relate to past trauma like a lot of my Sane fam. I didn't have a bad childhood, in fact it was great. We were extremely poor and I lived in hand me downs but there was never a moment that I felt unloved or unhappy. In fact up until I was in my 30's when I was diagnosed with depression I had a pretty well adjusted life. Later I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 and I looked back on my 20's and 30's pre diagnosis and knew that I was severely depressed around that time of the month and would often have SI but it wasn't until I was bullied a few years back by work managers that my mental health spiralled. I can't relate to how it feels to have been treated badly to the point it causes mental health problems, when I was bullied at school it was stopped pretty quickly because my mum intervened.
I tell y'all this because if I don't respond to a post you tag me in it's not because I don't care, it's because I can't relate and don't know what to say.

Much love and hugs xo

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

Good point @ENKELI when it comes to being Tagged in posts. If I don’t respond it’s because I’m attending to my own needs, my family, or I simply don’t have a response.

Like right now taking this opportunity to respond while sitting in my car, waiting for the Bully Community Garden members to rock up for 7pm AGM.

I was half an hour early. Because I don’t have time to read emails 🤣

@PeppyPatti Hello lovely how are you? I’m sorry to hear about your son. I’m really hoping that in the future things will work out. Therapy can help a lot with that.
